My Python CRUD App hits 2 million rows, Should I Shard my Database?
Hey Hussein I have a 2 million row table used in my CRUD python app, I’m worried that as the table grow my inserts will slow down, should I consider sharding my database or partition the table? thank you I’m avid of simplicity in design if I can do it in one machine I’ll do it. Sharding/Partitioning are all great inserts are fast, queries are slow 0:00 inserts can be slow 3:00 indexes/stored procedures selects, updates, and deletes can be slow 12:00 add proper indexes. simplicity wins, premature optimization is bad 15:20 crazy things that people say like microservices day 1 scares me
